 * hey guys, just in case anyone visits this page in the future, I figured it out!
 * In the functions.php file (Appearance>Editor), I pasted this code (thanks to 
   Nicolas from Customizr):
 *     ```
       add_filter ('tc_social_in_header' , 'vimeo_in_header');
       function vimeo_in_header($resp) {
           //class added if not resp
           $class         =  ('resp' == $resp) ? '':'span5'
           ?>
               <div class="social-block <?php echo $class ?>">
                   <?php if ( 0 != tc__f( '__get_option', 'tc_social_in_header') ) : ?>
                          <?php echo tc__f( '__get_socials' ) ?>
                          <a class="social-icon custom-icon" href="SITE URL YOU WANT THE ICON TO POINT TO" title="WHAT YOU WANT THE ICON TO SAY WHEN MOUSE HOVERS OVER IT" target="URL OF THE IMAGE YOU WANT FOR THE ICON"></a>
                      <?php endif; ?>
               </div><!--.social-block-->
           <?php
       }
       ```
   
 * Then, in the Custom CSS section of the Customizr tab, I pasted this second code
   snippet:
 *     ```
       .custom-icon:before {
          content: url("URL OF THE IMAGE YOU WANT FOR THE ICON");
           width: 18px;
           height: 18px;
           display: inline-block;
           background: url('URL OF THE IMAGE YOU WANT FOR THE ICON') no-repeat;
           background-size: 18px 18px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Now, a few more key notes:
    – I found the image I wanted to be an icon, edited
   in an awesome free photo editor (gotta make an account), called Pixlr Editor,
   changed the dimensions (Edit… Image Size… 25×25, or as small or large as you’d
   like) (*if for some reason, it doesn’t save as PNG, simply open that file in 
   Paint or a similar program, then save as… PNG) – Saved as PNG image file – Uploaded
   to Add Media on WordPress, Edit… File URL (is what you paste in the ‘URL OF THE
   IMAGE YOU WANT FOR THE ICON’ fields above)
 * Okay, hopefully this helps someone and make them feel super awesome too!

   icon.png” in the second code snippet with the PNG image I’m planning to use for
   the social icon)

 * I removed the update_option codes..
 * Then, I removed the define codes.. Now I’m locked out again..
 * The problem is that I can’t complete step one (changing the Site URL settings
   if I can’t log in to my backend, and when I get my backend back (adding the define
   codes to wp-config.php) it’s greyed out..” what do I do?

 * man.. hopefully this is possible.. I’m gonna try it.. if it doesn’t work or if
   it works, I’ll update this thread.. I suppose worst case scenario I have to just
   put those define lines in again to have access to my backend.. wish me luck.

 * can I just “hard code” the define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’[http://www.siteexample.com/wp&#8217](http://www.siteexample.com/wp&#8217););”
   line to
    define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’[http://siteexample.com&#8217](http://siteexample.com&#8217););”?

 * can I just “hard code” my [http://siteexample.com](http://siteexample.com) and
   continue with the steps above? Instead of changing it in general settings? Is
   that synonymous?

 * the only ones in there are the ones I put at the beginning of this thread, to
   get me back to square one:
 * “define(‘WP_HOME’,’[http://www.siteexample.com/wp&#8217](http://www.siteexample.com/wp&#8217););
   
   define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’[http://www.siteexample.com/wp&#8217](http://www.siteexample.com/wp&#8217););”
 * I just tried to remove these, then I was locked out of my site again. Can I still
   follow these directions? How do remove these files, maintain access to my backend
   so I can adjust the general settings of the site url then continue these steps?

 * alright, one more hurdle, my Site URL and WordPress URL fields are greyed out
   in my general settings, how do I change my Site URL in the first step?

 * alright, and then during this step:
 * Change the line that says:
    require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wp-blog-header.php’);
   to the following, using your directory name for the WordPress core files: require(
   dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’ );
 * what does “wordpress” signifiy? for me, is that simply “wp”?

 * ahh, okay, so I just copy and paste the htaccess and index.php file outside of
   the “/wp” folder? (underneath the welcome.html file in the first screenshot?)
